Most aftermarket Fiero cables available today have proven to be very poor quality. They also have little or no heat shielding. Heat is the single biggest factor in Fiero manual transmission cable failures. Over time heat makes the inner cable swell making the cable hard to move. Original GM cables had a very thick multilayer heat shielding wrap on them. Few if any GM cables are still available. I have these cables custom made for me and they are very good quality. Although my cables are very heat resistant they also (more importantly) have a similar multilayer heat shielding wrap on them. My cables offer several other advantages. See notes below.

Getrag V-6 5 Speed Fiero Shift Cable

Getrag V-6 5 Speed Fiero Select Cable

Features:

Black sheathing just like OEM.

OEM style heavy duty insulation.

Note: The select cable is the one that provides the side to side motion of the gear shift. This is the thinner diameter cable. The shift cable is the larger diameter cable.

Cables are sold by a few others but mine have a few notable differences:

If you buy this cable from someone else it will have a very thin paper thick heat shielding on it. The reason cables fail in time is from heat soak (exhaust pipes, coolant tubes and hoses and engine heat). My cables have a very heavy multi-layer aluminum skinned ceramic blanket like OEM cables. This ensures a long cable life. Factory cables have a thick heat shielding on them for a reason. Long life.

My Getrag cables are made to the correct length. Others advertise that they are adjustable and expect that you will make them the correct length after you receive them. Mine are ready to install. No guess work involved.

All my cables include a new chrome plated ball stud. My competitors expect you to use the old rusty and worn (most likely now undersize) ball stud from your old cable. This will leave you will looseness on that end of the cable.

You will need to reuse your original rubber firewall grommet. To remove it from your old cable take a razor knife and cut in to it up the old cable sheathing (halfway into the rubber grommet). Reinstall the rubber firewall grommet on the new cable.

NEW!My Getrag Fiero shift and select cables are now specific made to fit the V-6 5 speed Fiero. They are close reproductions of the GM factory original Getrag shift and select cables. In time all my cables will be like this. The price is also much lower. Just $89.95 for the Getrag select cable! I now also have this type of cable for the Getrag shift. The Getrag select cable is in the picture below.

Update on the Getrag select cables: My Getrag V-6 5 speed Fiero select cables all have a rubber boot on them now. Of all the shifting cables on all the Fieros ever made this is the cable that needs a rubber boot yet GM did not make them with a rubber boot. Same low price!

My new Fiero shift cables are as awesome as advertised! Absolute top quality & perfect fit. I won’t hesitate to do business with you again; you’ve earned my loyalty.

Thank You!

Getrag V-6 5 speed Fiero manual transmission replacement cables:

Shift cable (front to back movement): $99.99

Select cable (left to right movement): $89.95(New lower price!)

Cable lengths: Shift cable is about 62 1/4" overall

Select cable is about 74" overall

6 speed (F40/F43 Etc.) swap note: Some have used 2 of my select cables for the 6 speed swaps in their Fiero. My old cables had the removeable ball stud. My new cables do not (the ball stud will not come out of the aluminum socket). If you are doing a 6 speed swap please let me know and I will change the ends to steel ends that go over a ball stud so they fit the shifting lever ball studs of the 6 speed. $5.00 extra added per cable to change the ends. Also note: If you use a Fiero Getrag select cable as a shift cable it is not as strong as a shift cable and will not hold up as well as a shift cable depending on how hard you like to shift. How you make your brackets and stuff is also a factor.

Use the dropdown box to select SHIFT or SELECT cable.
